Yes, this time, we brought Russell along. Mummy me went to get him a passport. It's so funny because Renee's passport photo was taken when she was a baby and now she doesn't look like the picture anymore!
We were supposed to meet at 8 pm at Raffles Marina but upon getting into our car on the way to get the kids, Eugene said there was a "wierd" sound from the car. To me, everything was normal, we stopped but couldn't find anything wrong. When we reached my in-laws, Eugene spotted the little screw on the left front tire. We headed to Ubi to look for a car workshop that was open - bear in mind it was already 8pm! By the time we patched the hole and headed out of the car workshop, it was 9 pm. We agreed to meet the rest across the causeway and off we went. By the time we reached Malacca, it was almost 2 am. Here's Renee, she was wide awake by then! Took a while for the kids to settle down and fall asleep at 3 am. 
Anyway, it was really fun going in 5 cars - 14 adults, 4 kids, with the aunties and uncles helping take care of the kids. 14 adults to 4 kids is really a good ratio, if you ask me! Thankfully the kids sat in their car seats for the journey.
Renee with Emma!
We waited almost and hour and a half for the dinner to be served at the Portugese Settlement. A hawker-like place. Food was ok, thankfully the uncles and aunties helped keep the kids entertained. And thanks to Auntie Pei Chi for helping ensure Renee got to eat her food.....:)
Sunday, checking out of Condo D'Savoy. Heading to lunch....
at our fav Teo Soon Loong Teochew restaurant for yummy hokkien orh mee, steamed pomfret, ginger spring onion frogs legs, bitter gourd with pork (that was awesome) etc and orh ni....
then to a durian store for YUMMY lew lian (on the right is cheeky Auntie Pei Chi who took all the photos)
Russell enjoying his lew lian...which ended up all over his body (in the form of durian molten lava) when we reached customs later in the evening.....:(
The kids goofing around....before we headed back to Singapore.
We had a bit of a problem at the last toll booth, it proved to us we are so lucky to be staying in Singapore.
Verdict: GREAT TIME, GREAT HOLIDAY WITH GREAT COMPANY!
